Many people have so much dreams and great ambitions in which they have struggled or still struggling to achieve but have failed in the pursuit to achieve their goals.
However, I have compiled some secrets and rules of success in which such people and their likes should adopt to enable them attain their goals as an entrepreneur even sooner that expected. The following are these 7 rules;
1. STAY FOCUSED:
Entrepreneurship is long-term journey, stop seeing it as short-term. Great entrepreneur or company didn't build their business overnight. Its a long term journey, so dare to dream, implement your dream and stay focused.
2. HAVE A VISION
Talking about my career in banking which made me lead one of the banking sector within Nigeria, I grew up with certain belief and motivation; one of which is when you envision and take a position to that make that vision come through, then significant opportunity will crystalise.
We saw a banking industry that was growing fast, and we didn't think the capital human capacity was available to support the continued support of these banks, so we took an early position in putting in place a company that would help guarantee the survival of the bank, and when opportunity presented itself, we were ready for it.
3. READ AND EXECUTE
Many successful entrepreneurs are avit readers who tries to see learning point when reading fiction or nonfiction material. People generally conceptualize ideas based on history or social environmental factors and influence, so your people or anybody hungry for success needs to read a lot. Example of the book you should read is autobiographies.
Moreover, when you have a dream, you have to execute it by working hard which is what differentiate a successful person from someone that's not successful.
Combining the ability to read with mentality to translate and idea into reality will guarantee your success in life.
4. Seize your Opportunities
When running a business, entrepreneurs must be quick and fast in their ideas to know when an opportunity present itself and how to seize. They say that success to large extent depends on being at the right place at the right time.
5. BE DISCIPLINED
Being financially deligent starts with being prepared even before crises hits. Growing up, my Dad told me that if I earn Lott money and can't save that when I earn bigger money I won't still save anything. Same thing is applicable for investment. Keeping something not consuming everything has helped many entrepreneurs significantly.
6. WORK HARD
Hard work is what differentiate between a dreamer and achiever. Combining the ability to work hard and work smart increases productivity in another level. I always advise those that work with me that there is no substitute to hard work. Smart is very good too but I prefer the combination of the two for better and fast result. So work hard to actualize your dream.
7. IMPACT OTHERS
People should not measure one's success with the amount of money they have in the bank but the impact they have created on others. I realized that entrepreneurship was critical to the development of the world at large and as a successful entrepreneur, I know I needed to promote entrepreneurship so that we will have successful business leaders across the globe.
